EL 34 vs. KT 88 ---- What's the difference?


Can someone please tell me or be able to describe the sonic differences in the use of each of these tubes?

Is one tube better than the other...or does one tube provide more warmth and tube-like qualities than the other?

Does anyone know why a tube amp designer would select one over the other?

Thanks.

Another plus for EL34, I think, is the Mullard reproductions that can go with them - not overpriced and sound great.
After reading this post I am curious to try some rolling myself, just to hear the differences in my set up. Does anyone know if the Sonic Frontiers Power 2 supports using the EL-34 without modifications?
Wow, it takes a person of real character to return to make a correction to an earlier statement. You have won a lot of admiration from me, Biominitic!
